Psalms 133:2

Context

133:2 It is like fine oil poured on the head

which flows down the beard 6 

Aaron’s beard,

and then flows down his garments. 7 

1 tn Heb “among those who called on his name.”

2 tn Heb “those who.” The participle is in apposition to the phrase “those who called on his name” in the preceding line.

3 tn Or “remembers us.”

4 tn Another option is to translate the prefixed form of the verb “bless” in vv. 12-13 as a jussive, “may he bless” (see v. 14).

5 tn Heb “house.”

6 tn Heb “[it is] like the good oil on the head, going down on the beard.”

7 tn Heb “which goes down in accordance with his measured things.” The Hebrew phrase מִדּוֹתָיו (middotayv, “his measured things”) refers here to the robes worn by Aaron. HALOT 546 s.v. *מַד derives the form from מַד (midah, “robe”) rather than מִדָּה (middah, “measured thing”). Ugaritic md means “robe” and is pluralized mdt.
